In general, a solution is to have the old implementation wrap the new one
and log some deprecation message.
So you can have a {{workspaces}} macro that calls the {{wikis}} macro and
also notifies the user somehow that the macro is deprecated.
Hope this helps,
Marius

Hi!
I have two jira issues that I need to fix for 5.3:
* http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9558 - Rename {{workspaces /}} gadget
to {{wikis /}}
* http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9491 - Rename
"WorkspaceInformationPanel" to "WikiInformationPanel"
The implementation is very trivial. In both cases I just rename a document,
and in one case I only change the field "name" of the WikiMacro.
But how do we handle upgrade?
A: If someone has used the {{workspaces /}} macro in her content, she will
not see the expected result anymore.
B: If WorkspaceInformationPanel is used in a layout, should we
automatically update this layout to use WikiInformationPanel?
Do we consider we should let the user fix this issues herself, or should we
provide an automatic solution to that? If so, how could we do?
Thanks for your help,
Louis-Marie.
